Description
Summary:As part of a joint effort between B.C. Hydro and ALSTOM ESCA, an online transient stability analysis (TSA) capability was developed for addition to a new energy management system being installed at the B.C. Hydro control center. Following the original development, a number of research projects enhanced the original development making it more efficient and generic for applications to other utility systems. The requirement to post available transfer capability for a up to one year ahead, is shifting the paradigm for online DSA. Sections 2 and 3 of this article briefly describe the design and the architecture of an online DSA. Section 4 describes the requirement for ATC calculation and how it will affect the future of online DSA. Finally Section 5 describes the areas of development and improvements for the existing online DSA to meet the challenges of the future.
